Current Issue

Vol. 2 No. 2 (2024): Thematic issue: Reimagining Interdependence & Peace and Conflict

This issue of the FECUN journal explores two themes: ‘Reimagining interdependence’ and ‘Peace and Conflict,’ each closely tied to our understanding of the futures of education, culture, and nature.

The theme ‘Reimagining interdependence’ invites a rethinking of the intricate connections between humans, nature, and the various systems we inhabit. Drawing inspiration from diverse  perspectives, the contributions related to this theme emphasize the need for a holistic approach to education that integrates ecological sustainability, cultural richness, and social well-being, reflecting the interconnectedness of all aspects of life on Earth without being blind to the challenges such interconnectedness and interdependence might pose.

The theme of 'Peace and Conflict' examines the roles education, culture, and nature play or could play in fostering harmony or at least more peaceful disagreements in a conflicted world. By addressing the roots of conflict and fostering a culture of peace, including a reflected notion of peace, education can become a powerful tool in building more resilient and (at least more) harmonious societies.

We in this journal issue also embark on an editorial experiment as we explore the idea that contributions in a particular journal issue can be released over several ‘publication rounds as long as it is within the same year of publication. We do this because we wish to align better with the order in which we receive contributions and to ensure a continuous stream of articles.

Regarding this particular issue, then the first round of contributions, which is published in June 2024 all relates to the theme ‘Reimagining Interdependence,’ the next round will, besides further contributions on the first theme, also contain contributions associated with the second theme, ‘Peace and Conflict.’ The next round is scheduled for publication in August, with a potential third round in late Autumn. The editorial introduction will continuously be updated for each round
